making a rehsus monkey; tips, references, general advice?

Hi. I'm making a rhesus monkey for a game (possible doom 3) and I'm not 100% happy with the reference pics i have. i have some looking towards the camera, and some side on, but they're all different monkeys in different situations. plus, most of them are either sitting down, or walking on all fours, and the premise of the mod requires them to walk on they're feet.
maybe someone else has made a rhesus monkey, or there's a good photoset or drawing or reference i can see before i really get into this. I need them to look realistic, so attention to detail is needed, but I'm kind of flying blind here.
and if you have any tips, that would be great.

well if you want a waking monkey i gues you need to look up some videos.
maybe seartch at YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. "walking monkey" you can always freez a video image and take it out as a refrance.

Maybe not hte best quality butfunny ^^

hah! that's awesome. That's ok for the animation reference, but like i said, i'm going to have to worry about the details of the monkey's features first.
